Precautions

This label is intended to alert the user to the presence of important

Warning operating instructions.

Failure to heed the instructions will result severe injury or death.

DO NOT DISASSEMBLE OR ALTER

Attempts to disassemble or alter may lead to an accident, fire and/or electric shock.

KEEP SMALL ARTICLES OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN

Store small articles (batteries, screws, etc.) in places not accessible to children. If swallowed, consult a physician immediately.

USE THE CORRECT AMPERE RATING WHEN REPLACING FUSES

Replace fuses only with fuses of the same ampere rating. Failure to do so may result in a fire and/or damage to the vehicle.

HALT USE IMMEDIATELY IF A PROBLEM APPEARS

When problems appear, stop using the system immediately and contact the dealer from whom you purchased the equipment. Some problems which may warrant immediate attention include a lack of sound, noxious odors or smoke being emitted from the unit, or foreign objects dropped inside the unit.

DO NOT OPERATE THE REMOTE CONTROL WHILE DRIVING

Do not change settings while driving. If operation requiring a prolonged view of the display is required, stop the vehicle in a safe location before attempting operation.

Caution

This label is intended to alert the user to the presence of important

operating instructions.

Failure to heed the instructions can result injury or material damage.

DO NOT BLOCK VENTS OR RADIATOR PANELS

Do not block air vents or heat discharge plates. Blocking them will cause heat to build up inside and may result in fire.

DO NOT RAISE THE VOLUME EXCESSIVELY

Keep the volume at a level where you can still hear outside noises while driving. Driving while unable to hear outside sounds could cause an accident.

DO NOT USE THIS EQUIPMENT OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE

Do not use this equipment for purposes other than those listed for a vehicle. Failure to do so may result in an electric shock or an injury.

KEEP FOREIGN OBJECTS OUT OF THE CD OR CASSETTE COMPARTMENT SLOT

Keep any foreign objects, including fingers, out of the CD or cassette compartment slot.

STOP THE VEHICLE BEFORE CARRYING OUT ANY OPERATION THAT COULD INTERFERE WITH YOUR DRIVING

If loading or unloading a CD or cassette interferes with your driving, stop the vehicle in a safe location before attempting operation.

DO NOT MIX NEW BATTERIES WITH OLD BATTERIES. INSERT WITH THE CORRECT BATTERY POLARITY

Do not mix new batteries with old batteries and do not replace with other than specified

batteries. When inserting the batteries, be sure to observe proper polarity (+ and –)as

instructed. Battery rupture or chemical leakage can cause an injury or equipment malfunc-

Precautions

+60°C

–10°C

Thermal Protection Circuit

Be sure the temperature inside the vehicle is between +60°C (+140°F) and –10°C(+14°F) before attempting to play a disc. If the temperature is over +60°C (+140°F), the protection circuit functions to stop the CD player, and "HITEMP" is displayed.

Moisture Condensation

You may notice the CD playback sound wavering due to condensation. If this happens, remove the disc from the player and wait about an hour for the moisture to evaporate.

Damaged Disc

Do not attempt to play cracked, warped, or damaged discs. Playing a bad disc could severely damage the playback mechanism.

Maintenance

If you have problems, do not attempt to repair the unit yourself. Return it to your Alpine dealer or the nearest Alpine Service Station for servicing.

Irregular Shaped Discs

Make sure the discs you use in this unit do not have any irregularities. The outer and inner edges should be round and smooth. Use of irregularly shaped discs may cause damage to the mechanism.

Precautions

Center Hole

Bumps

New Discs

As a protective measure, the CD player will automatically eject discs that have either been inserted incorrectly or have irregular surfaces. If a new disc is ejected immediately after loading, use your finger to feel around the outer edge of the CD and its center hole. If you feel any small bumps or irregularities, this could inhibit proper loading of the disc. To remove the bumps, rub the inside edge of the hole and outside edge of the disc with a ball-pointpen or other such instrument, then insert the disc again.

Handling Magazine

When discs are being exchanged in the 3DA-

W882E, the magazine is pushed out from the

changer. While this operation is in progress, do

not try to pull out the magazine or stop its

IMPROPER

movement in any way, as this could cause

damage to the mechanism. In addition, be

aware of the changer's operation so it will not

interfere with your driving. For example, before

changing gears, check the position of the

IMPROPER

magazine so as not to hit it while it is changing

discs.

CAUTION:

Do not insert anything other than magazine into

insertion slot.

Precautions

Tape Slack

Check and make sure any slack in the tape is taken up before inserting the tape into the unit. A loose tape can get caught in the mechanism and cause damage to the unit and the tape itself. Tighten the tape by inserting a pencil or a similar instrument into the spindle hole and turn until all the slack has been taken up.

Excessively Thin Tape

C-120type cassette tapes are not recommended for use in automobile tape players.

Precision Tape Mechanism

Prevent any foreign objects from entering the cassette opening as the precision mechanism and tape head may be damaged.

Never play dirty or dusty tapes – they can damage the tape head.

Tape Head Cleaning

Periodic cleaning (approximately every 20 hours of use) of the tape head with a wet type head-cleaningcassette tape (available at audio stores) is necessary for best performance.

Fuse Replacement

When replacing the fuse(s), the replacement must be of the same amperage as shown on the fuse holder. If the fuse blows more than once, carefully check all electrical connections for shorted circuitry. Also have your vehicle’s voltage regulator checked.
